Yesterday it came to our attention that CNN had a special report about the snow castles here in the Copper Country. This is the very same structure which appeared in place of the "bridge cam" last month, as the snow structure was being constructed.

Wow, this area has received lots of national media coverage lately! The current issue of Men's Journal includes Houghton as one of the healthiest, safest, most fun towns in America... and as you travel north along the Keweenaw Peninsula, it gets even better!

Thank you for the great photo I live in Munising and I got to get up there and see all that they have to offer.I know that there work is awesome.I love that area it has many great things to see. Thank You

We don't want too much attention given to the UP!! We have to keep our paradise a secret or else all the things we love about it will disappear...

A couple of days ago I was listening to the Classical station here in Northern VA(DC) and they introduced a Sibelius piece by telling about this house. That was fun to hear, since in 2 1/2 weeks I will be a resident of Hancock!!!!!! yea!

So today I got nostalgic and wanted to see some of my homeland and find a website/phone/email for Porcupine Press Magazine and I have been surfing northern Michigan websites, on and off, all day. I grew up in the Hubbell/Lake Linden area. It is funny the longing to be there never goes away. Thanx to one and all for bringing me back to what I miss. Great memories.

Hey Sis this is Shelley writing, I don't know if you will receive this but other than being unemployed Francis and I are hanging in there, no luck on my next job yet, but say some prayers for me that it comes before the heaviest yooper snowfall. Love ya.....Signed Shelley
